About Us
The Trust is an Inverclyde wide organisation employing over 100 staff (full and part time) in a range of care, employability, and regeneration services provided across Inverclyde.
In 1987 Greenock Employment Action Group (GEAG) was formed to deal with employment issues in the more disadvantaged areas of Greenock. In 1996 GEAG, along with other groups were reformed as Inverclyde Community Development Trust, creating a district-wide organisation with at that time over 40 staff members.
The Trust (and GEAG) developed and managed a number of projects and programmes over the last 19 years, many of which are known in their own right.
